Used Chery Tiggo 8 Pro for Ghana — Landed Cost from $15,938

Why the Tiggo 8 Pro works in Ghana

Ghana is our primary market and the Tiggo 8 Pro is our most requested model there, for one reason: Ghanaian family buyers want a 7-seat SUV, and nothing else at this price is this new.

Ghana’s duty regime is the friendlier of the two markets we serve — roughly 30-35% of CIF against Nigeria’s 50-70% — which means the same car lands about $3,770 cheaper in Tema than in Lagos. Combined with 200 mm of ground clearance for roads outside Accra and Kumasi, this is the easiest car we sell into Ghana.

What your buyer is comparing it against

A Ghanaian buyer with $15,000-18,000 to spend is otherwise looking at a 2014 BMW X5 or a 2015 Mercedes-Benz GLE with around 150,000 km, five seats, no inspection report and a 3.0L diesel that is expensive to keep running. You are offering a much newer car with 35,000 km, seven seats and documented history for the same money.

That is the whole pitch, and it does not require exaggeration.

Practical notes for Ghana

Vehicle age penalties are a real part of Ghana’s import cost structure, and they are precisely why 2-4 year old Chinese stock lands competitively here while a cheaper, older car often does not. Do the landed-cost arithmetic on the newer unit before assuming the cheaper FOB price wins.

Destination inspection applies. We supply the full documentation set your clearing agent needs to open the file: commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, export certificate and the de-registration paperwork from China.

Chery has years of brand presence across Africa, so the badge is recognised in Ghana — which matters more for resale than the specification sheet does.

Common questions

Q: How much does it cost to import a used Chery Tiggo 8 Pro to Ghana? A: Around $15,938 total landed for a 2022 290T 2WD Haohan: $10,074.07 FOB Nansha, $2,000 freight to Tema, and roughly $3,864 in duty and taxes. The duty figure is an estimate based on approximately 30-35% of CIF — confirm the current number with your clearing agent before you commit.

Q: Which port do you ship to? A: Tema by default, which serves Accra and the south. Takoradi is available if it suits your logistics better. Sailing time is 28-35 days from Nansha.

Q: Is it left-hand drive? A: Yes. Ghana drives on the right, so LHD is correct, and every car we export is LHD as built. No conversion, no conversion cost.

Q: Can I import more than one at a time? A: Yes, and it is usually the better economics — freight per unit drops when you fill a container. Tell us your budget and we will propose a mix across models rather than pushing you into one.
